Referring also to its observation, the Committee would be grateful if the Government would provide information on the following points.

Article 6 of the Convention. The Committee requests the Government to keep the ILO informed of developments relating to the draft conditions of service of labour inspectors announced in its report.

Articles 10 and 16. Noting the Government’s indication of an increase in the staff of the Labour Inspectorate during the year 2000 and of the establishment of a unit responsible for carrying out routine inspections, the Committee however notes that the statistics for inspections contained in the tables appended to the Government’s report of 3 September 2001 differ from those contained in the Labour Statistics Bulletin 2000, as well as from those in the report dated 28 August 2002. The Government is once again requested to provide full and precise information on the number and geographical distribution of labour inspectors by category, as well as statistics of inspections presented, if possible, in the manner recommended in points (c) to (d) of Part IV of Recommendation No. 81, which supplements the Convention.

Article 15(a). With reference to its previous comments, the Committee notes that, according to the Government, the supervisory procedures have been strengthened so as to ensure that labour inspectors do not have a direct or indirect interest in the enterprises under their supervision. The Committee requests the Government to describe these procedures and to provide a copy of any relevant text.

Articles 20 and 21. While noting the information contained in the Labour Statistics Bulletin 2000 relating to inspections and employment accidents, the Committee would be grateful if the Government would rapidly take measures to ensure the publication and communication to the ILO by the central labour inspection authority within the time limits set out in Article 20, of a general annual report on the work of the inspection services under its control, containing the information required on all the matters set out in Article 21.

Workplaces covered by the labour inspection system. The statistical tables of inspections show trade unions as a branch of activity in the same way as commercial and industrial workplaces. Inspections of them are carried out by labour inspectors, either upon request or automatically. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would indicate the nature and purpose of such inspections.
